IncGamers has a very brief status report on Thief 4 after getting an update on the stealth/action sequel from Stephane D'Astous. "Let me reassure you that the team is making leaps and bounds," says the General Manager at Eidos-Montréal. "Personally i have NEVER seen a team, at this milestone (middle of pre-production) in such good shape." He also makes a quick reference to the expectations for the title, saying fans "will NOT be disappointed with Thief 4."

That's curious that you would mention 3rd person as a negative in a stealth game. Splinter cell Chaos Theory was one of the best stealth games I ever played, and it was 3rd person. It seemed right, considering the mechanics involved.

Granted, I play Thief 3 in 1st person mode out of habit, but 3rd person isn't a bane for stealth action games in my view.

That Prez, man, he can sure play a mean game of the Sims (happy now? )
